This still seems like a wild conspiracy theory to me, and yet, I wish them luck because I don't see what significant harm could come out of it and maybe they're right, and even if they're not the search ought to be interesting. Sort of like Oak Island. Search on, you crazy sleuths, and let me know if you find something.

I'm skeptical too, but I have to admit the footage of the one on the road where he visited was pretty convincing. Though in a world of AI and deepfakes I don't know that I can trust it. Curious to see if he finds anything.

There was that zoo in northern Ontario (can't remember where, past north bay) that kept losing animals

The only thing in that area that I can think of that might fall under the heading "zoo" was a small petting zoo that I vaguely remember as fronting on Hwy 11 in the general area of the Tri-Town many years ago. I doubt they had any big cats. Certainly they wouldn't have been able to afford enough of them to get a breeding population from any escapees.

Melanistic cougars I might believe, or escaped animals from a lot further south.
